High Ho off we Go
Response from developer
G'day... thank you for using Dirt Map! The app can actually dynamically re-centre when you are on a move. You simply click the top right button (the one with arrow) and it will reposition the map to your location and will start following your direction.
Not what I thought or paid for
Response from developer
Hi there, this may not be correct. We have the offline map available based on your location when you use the app. May I ask if you are currently located in Texas? Please contact me at Kelvin@dirtmap.com and I will assist you to get the offline map for Texas.
It’s ok - honest review
The gps is highly inaccurate which is ok for driving on a track but for bush walking you need the accuracy as there are not always made tracks to follow. Don’t rely on this app to keep you from getting lost.
Map Tracking should be on by default and being able to upload a kml file for saving and compatible with other apps like Google Earth would be a good start. As far as I can tell you can’t go back to a point in the track and view your speed, altitude, position and time like you can with Kml data.
I give 1 extra star for being able to run in the background but battery usage is a killer 7% in 33 minutes.

Hi there, we are here to assist if you have any difficulties using the app. For example, our GPS is highly accurate as it's using your phone's GPS. However, if your area is block the satellite signal, it may be preventing you from receiving accurate signal. Map tracking is already available. You can simply record trip and it will record your track in real time. Map Tracking is not enabled by default as it will consume more power from your batteries. We support .GPX files. We are looking to introduce kml files shortly. ONce again thank you for your feedback. We will continuously improve our Dirt Map.
Best Mapping App

Paid Lic , download not fully detailed
Response from developer
Hi WillowLM, the offline map may take some time to fully download as there are 2 stages of download in the background. Have you already checked the map is fully downloaded? If you can send me an email kelvin@dirtmap.com and I will assist you further. Thank you
No bad but not the most intuitive app
I use this app but would prefer if the app had greater detail and some mapping basics.
Some examples:
Lacks a legend and info such as contour step information.
Hard to get info on track names by tapping on or highlighting with centre marker.
River and creek names are elusive until you zoom right in then they are blue writing on blue background

Hi B-1972, thank you for the feedback. Please send us an email to kelvin@dirtmap.com and I am happy to assist you. Our mapping source is using OpenStreetMap thus some details may not be shown until you zoom in. If there are any specific use cases, we can address this. Thank you.
Brilliant.
My Go-to App
Great app
Excellent 4wd Navigation app!!
Maps have great detail and definition, and the map colours and contrasting used makes the tracks,roads easy to see and find at a glance with the track names very visible. The user interface is very clean and intuitive, the ability to add a marker on the fly very simple and quick.
The trip recording works brilliantly. I record all my trips religiously and importing them from my previous app was a breeze. Unlike Mud Maps I can have all my recorded trips displayed permanently.
The ability to add folders and sort trips is another plus.
The sync accounts feature is definitely one of those things you never knew you needed until you had it. It being really useful In convoys to track others as well as letting the family know where you are.
The developer is constantly improving and updating the app and listening to feedback so looking forward to what will become of an already great app.
